Sunday Mornings with Twitchy Woman
Learn Together, Play Together and Thrive Together
Twitchy Women hosts a series of webinars on Zoom for Women with Parkinson’s Disease every other Sunday morning at 10 am Pacific Time. To maintain privacy for this group, we ask that care-partners and family members not attend unless an event states that registration is open to all.
January 24, 2021 Writing your Parkinson’s Narrative
Everyone has a story. We may think our personal stories are nothing special, boring, blah. Yet if we are brave enough to tell a story, we find people are fascinated by our lives…even what we think is mundane. Join Carol Clupny, author of the Ribbon of Road Ahead: One Woman’s Remarkable Journey with Parkinson’s Disease and Sharon Krischer host of TWITCHY WOMEN and PD blogger as they discuss how they have shared their PD stories. You might even hear a good story or two.
